Reducible Connections and Non-local Symmetries of the Self-dual Yang–mills Equations
نویسنده
چکیده
We construct the most general reducible connection that satisfies the self-dual Yang–Mills equations on a simply-connected, open subset of flat R. We show how all such connections lie in the orbit of the flat connection on R under the action of non-local symmetries of the self-dual Yang–Mills equations. Such connections fit naturally inside a larger class of solutions to the self-dual Yang–Mills equations that are analogous to harmonic maps of finite type.

The Adhm Construction and Non-local Symmetries of the Self-dual Yang–mills Equations
We consider the action on instanton moduli spaces of the non-local symmetries of the self-dual Yang–Mills equations on R discovered by Chau and coauthors. Beginning with the ADHM construction, we show that a sub-algebra of the symmetry algebra generates the tangent space to the instanton moduli space at each point. We explicitly find the subgroup of the symmetry group that preserves the one-ins...

The relation between two–dimensional integrable systems and four–dimen-sional self–dual Yang–Mills equations is considered. Within the twistor description and the zero–curvature representation a method is given to associate self–dual Yang-Mills connections with integrable systems of the Korteweg–de Vries and non–linear Schrödinger type or principal chiral models. Examples of self–dual connectio...
